1. She is eligible for president. Is it okay?

Alice: What are the roles she is eligible for?
Bob: She is eligible for (the role of) president.

2. She is eligible for (the) presidency.

- Is it ok to omit "the"? I'd keep it, but I don't think anyone would flinch if you left it out.

Both refer to deciding if a person has the chance to become president.
